COSC movement question

Hello all,

My SMP is running -2 or so seconds per day and is now three weeks "old." This got me thinking...

My Seiko, for example, does not have a COSC movement (naturally). The Seiko "breaks in" and accuracy "settles down" as the watch is worn.

Now, the Omega has been tested and certified. This means the movement has more use time on the figurative odometer, doesn't it? So, will the Omega movemnt "settle" in or is what I see what I get? I'm expecting the latter, and expecting accuracy to decrease over time as the first service comes nearer. In contrast, the Seiko (and others) run a bit silly initially, then accuracy increases... before decreasing again as service time nears.

Am I thinking about this correctly?
